Thomas that works, although I was hoping for something that was less sensitive to whitespace (specifically carriage returns).

I think I found it:

How do I insert a string with a linefeed into derby via an SQL script with ij?

The string literal that java would insert would look like this: "line1\nline2".

I need to insert it via an SQL script. I've tried using unicode \u000A and \n and neither will work.
i.e.  insert into test (id, test) values (1, 'line1\u000Aline2');  (or
line1\nline2 respectively)

When I select the contents, I get the line1\u000Aline2  or
line1\nline2 back out and not the line feed I was expecting (ok,
hoping) to see:

ie.

line1
line2

Is this possible?
